Recovery Update

Sorry I am just now getting around to update my surgery. I've had a little harder time recovering than I thought I would. Surgery went well. I have two working tubes, he removed that huge cyst I had on my right ovary. No endo found. He did find a mass that was sent off for a biopsy. He seems to think it was left over from our miscarriage.

When I came out of anesthia I was in a lot of pain so they gave me morphine and it made me sick to my stomach. I did feel much better after puking though. I couldn't pee either. They usually require you pee before leaving. After doing a ultrasound, I only had two teaspoons of urine in my bladder so they let me go home and said if I didn't pee by 9:00 that night to come back to the hospital. Thankfully I did (a little). I was up all night with the urge to go but only dribbles coming out. Finally yesterday my bladder woke up and was working fully again. I've had some significant pain where my incisions are and dizziness still from anesthia wearing off, but all and all I am doing much better and getting stronger everyday.

I took off work until Tuesday. That gives me plenty of time for recovery.

Hope everyone has a great weekend.

My daughter is heading out to her first day of driving school! Yes I am still shocked that I am the parent of a "almost" driving teenager. My poor insurance!

About Me

Hi everyone! I married the love of my life on April 24, 2010. I guess it took a little longer then I thought to find him. I do have a daughter and she is 16 years old. I got pregnant with her when I was 20, wow have times changed. I never thought that having a second child would be such a challenge. Here I am 38 and ttc. We have 7 iui's under our belt and two failed ivf attempts and 5 chemical pregnancies and 1 miscarriage after seeing a heartbeat. Everyday of struggling hopefully brings us one day closer to having a baby or one day closer to moving on without one.
Recently I was diagnosed with:
Positive APA Panel, ANA, Th 1/Th2, Factor XIII mutated, PA1 mutation, MTHFR mutation. Working with Dr. Kim and a new protocol.
